CHILDREN’S PROCESSION WITH INFANT KING STATUE

TRADITIONAL BLESSING OF CHILDREN

We implore Thee, almighty God, to bless + these children,

and we ask Thee to keep them in Thy love.

Strengthen their hearts by the power of Thy Holy Sprit, sanc-

tify their lives, foster their innocence.

Keep their minds intent on good, help them to prosper, give

them peace, health, and charity.

By Thy might and protection shield them always from

every temptation of men or demons.

And in Thy mercy may they finally attain the happiness and

rest of Paradise; through Christ our Lord. Amen.

FROM DESK OF CANON RAPHAEL UEDA

I am now in St. Louis. This is the last time I will write "From the Desk of the Vicar". I have been pondering what to write for this last message to all of you. As I wrote in the last bulletin, my heart is still full of my many experiences in Chicago. Sometimes we lose the words to express ourselves, even though there

are many things to say within our hearts, so I will ask Our Lord to help me. "May Jesus purify our recollections of the past so that we can appreciate them according to their true value. May Jesus dissipate the clouds of anxi-ety and the fears in our hearts in the present. May Jesus show us the path which we need to follow for the fu-ture." You will always be in my prayers, and I ask that you please keep me in yours. God bless you all!
